Howdy All!
I was going through some old pictures and found a few of the two zeppelin projects I had put together in the past... so I decided to share!
My first Zeppelin was back in 2000... I was a HUGE fan of Wizkid's Crimson Skies Clix game and had collected all the aircraft and LE prize planes. I decided that some house zeppelin rules might make things more interesting... after all you get to fight zeppelins constantly in the video game version! So I got it in my head that I was going to build one and I did! I found an R-100 Airship Paper model online and used it as the basis for the model. After a lot of cutting, gluing, painting, filling, sanding, painting, and detailing I ended up with my first completed zeppelin... a little off scale for the game but perfect for ease of play. Here is a teaser pic:
My second project came in 2006. I was playing a lot of Aerodrome 1.1 at the time and our group decided to come up with house zeppelin rules. I figured if I had built one before, I could build an even bigger one... I took pictures of the project as I worked on it.
You can find all the pictures and descriptions of both Zeppelins in the album I put up here!
Here are a couple of teaser pics of the second one to hopefully get you interested!
Neither project was perfect... and if I were to build another I would definitely change a few things... but thanks for looking! I am willing to email you brownies for an occasional "oooh" or "ahhh".
